Another great review Arnold, looks like a decent car. Shame all new cars are so pricey these days, speccing one up on a UK website was well over £40k. Incidentally, these types of roads are now very familiar to me 😁
I wouldn't buy a car that costs £40k or more on principle. It's an insult that they want you to pay an additional road tax supplement of £410 per year for 5 years. That's an extra £2,050 above the standard tax. When this extra tax was introduced it seemed to target expensive, powerful or large, fuel thirsty vehicles. However, now, due to huge inflation (post COVID and worldwide energy cost), and the trend for more complex vehicles (hybrid/additional safety features) that an ever increasing number of modern, efficient cars will get caught up in the tax rip off.
I’ve just bought the 2.0 litre limited edition, a little tip, instead of scrolling down to cancel the RSA scroll up, it virtually goes straight to it! Great review
Can you do a review for Peugeot 3008 ? Then compare the two. CHR Vs Peugeot 3008. Ideally models 2024. What you like what you don't, what feels more family oriented, more spacious, pros and cons on both, maintenance,fuel consumption, longevity, durability,car services etc.Which of the two gets an edge on your preference and why.
Thanks for your question, I haven't tested the Peugeot and I probably won't. The cars featured in the Real Life Car Reviews are the cars that I test drive for my website, and that is dedicated to Japanese and Korean brands only. As it stands, that already means testing, filming and photographing one car per week. I just don't have the time to do more tests / testvideos. Maybe sometime in the future, if I can make a living out of my UA-cam channel ;-)
In a nutshell: it's quiet and comfortable, great fuel economy. Straight line stability is outstanding, the only thing you might consider is a smaller wheel size for extra comfort, especially when you do a lot of highway driving.
Thanks for your comment! In comparison with the MX-30, the C-HR is noticeably sportier and more dynamic in the steering. The Mazda is more laidback, but not to a point where it is too comfortable. It is more of a side effect of its weight, Mazda used that to enhance the ride comfort, but with plenty of driver engagement.

Thanks for that tip to switch off the RSA, and good luck with your new C-HR Colin. Tanks for watching!

1st to thank you for making these videos!
And thank you for watching Joe!
You forgot to tell how it drives, especially on autobahn.
In a nutshell: it's quiet and comfortable, great fuel economy. Straight line stability is outstanding, the only thing you might consider is a smaller wheel size for extra comfort, especially when you do a lot of highway driving.
Thank you for your review. Our new C-HR arrives next week and it is helpful to be able to get a detailed look at the car in use from you.
Thank you so much for watching!
What is the driving experience like compared to Mazda MX30 R-EV ? I always enjoy watching your reviews , thank you.
